1.02.05.02 Stabilisation of the side of borehole shall be done by the use of bentonite slurry. Direct Mud Circulation (DMC) process shall be adopted. In such cases the bentonite slurry must be used at least from the level of sub-soil water, as the hole shall then be always kept almost full with the fluid. The specific gravity of bentonite slurry shall be in the range of 1.05 to 1.10. This shall be checked regularly for each or at any change in its specified consistency. Pressure of slurry pump shall be sufficient enough to clear out all cuttings efficiently from the hole. Prevention of side collapse of bore-holes shall be taken care by with use of temporary casing if necessary. At the last stage of boring or in intermediate hard layers chisel may be used. The piles shall be installed with due consideration for safely of adjacent structures by a method. Which leaves their strength unimpaired, and which develops and retains the required bearing resistance. 1.02.05.03 Reinforcement as required shall be made into stiff cages sufficiently welded to withstand handling without any damage or distortion. Reinforcement shall be placed immediately after cleaning and inspection of the bottom of bore holes. The reinforcement should be supported away from the sides of the shaft by means of suitable space block to ensure concentric alignment in the shaft. Steps shall be taken to ensure correct positioning during concreting of reinforcement in the piles without any distoration. 1.02.05.04 Immediately before placing or reinforcement and concreting, the bored hole shall be cleaned of all the loose material, debris and all the water shall be removed.

TESTING BEFORE LAYING At the time of issue of cable for laying, the cables shall be tested for continuity and insulation resistance. The cables shall be tested for continuity of cores and insulation resistance and the cable length shall be measured, before closing the trench. The cable end shall be sealed/covered as per above clause. SAND COVERING Cables laid in trenches in single tier formation shall have a covering of dry sand of not less than 17cm above the base cushion of sand before the protective cover is laid. In the case of vertical multi-tier formation, after the first cable has been laid, a sand cushion of 30cm shall be provided over the base cushion before the second tier is laid. If additional tiers are formed, each of the subsequent tiers also shall have a sand cushion of 30cm as stated above. Cables in the top most tiers shall have final sand covering not less than 17cm before the protective cover is laid. Sand covering as per above need not be provided for MV cables where a decision is taken by the Engineer-in-charge as per above sub clause, but the inter-tier spacing should be maintained as in above with soft soil instead of sand between tiers and for covering. Sand cushioning as per above shall however be invariable provided in the case of HV cables. EXTRA LOOP CABLE At the time of original installation, approximately 3m of surplus cable shall be left on each terminal end of the cable and on each side of the underground joints. The surplus

cable shall be left in the form of a loop. Where there are long rungs of cables such loose cable may be left in the form of a loop. Where there are long runs of cables such loose cable may be left at suitable intervals as specified by the Engineer-in-charge. Where it may not be practically possible to provide separation between cables when forming loops of a number of cables as in the case of cables emanating from a substation, measurement shall be made only to the extent of actual volume of excavation, sand filling etc. and paid for accordingly. MECHANICAL PROTECTION OVER THE COVERING a. Mechanical protection to cables shall be laid over the covering in accordance with below to provide warning to future excavators of the presence of the cable and also to protect the cable against accidental mechanical damage by pickaxe blows etc. Unless otherwise specified, the cables shall be protected by second class brick of nominal size 22cm x 11.4cm x 7cm or locally available size, placed on top of the sand (or, soil as the case may be) the bricks shall be placed breadth-wise for full length of the cable. Where more than one cable is to be laid in the same trench, this protective covering shall cover all the cables and project at least 5cm over the sides of the end cables. Where bricks are not easily available, or are comparatively costly, there is no objection to use locally available material such as titles or slates or stone/cement concrete slabs. Where such an alternative is acceptable, the same shall be clearly specified in the tender specifications. Protective covering as per above need not be provided only for MV cables, in exceptional cases where there is normally no possibility of subsequent excavation. Such cases shall be particularly specified in the Tender specifications.

for subsidence. The crown of the earth however, should not exceed 10cm. so as not to be a hazard to vehicular traffic. The temporary re-statements of roadways should be inspected at regular intervals, particularly during wet weather and settlements should be made good by further filling as may be required. After the subsidence has ceased, trenches cut through roadways or other paved areas shall be restored to the same density and materials as the surrounding area and repaved in accordance with the relevant building specifications to the satisfaction of the Engineer-in-charge. Where road beams or lawns have been cut out of necessarily, or kerb stones displaced, the same shall be repaired and made good, except for turning / asphalting, to the satisfaction of the Engineer-in-charge, and all the surplus earth or rock shall be removed to places as specified. LAYING OF SINGLE CORE CABLES Three single core cables forming one three-phase circuit shall normally be laid in close trefoil formation and shall be bound together at intervals of approximately 1m. The relative position of the three cables shall be changed at each joint at the time of original installation, complete transposition being effected in every three consecutive cable lengths. LAYING IN PIPES / CLOSED DUCTS Stone ware pipes, GI, CI or spun reinforced concrete pipes shall be used for cables in general; however only GI pipe shall be used as protection pipe on poles. The size of pipe shall not be less than 10cm in dia. for a single cable and not less than 15cm for more than one cable. Where steel pipes are employed for protection of single core cable feeding AC load, the pipe should be large enough to contain both cables in the case of single-phase system and all cables in the case of poly phase system.
